In case you did not get the notification for comments

We have resolved all the issues with our manufacturer and the missing Dice, we have found someone who can open our boxes, add the dice and then rewrap.

It was surprising how long it took to find someone who could do this in the UK. All the games, and extra Dice are shortly in days with Games Quest in the UK. They will then be putting all the extra dice in the games. Kickstarter ones first and shipping those before all the games are corrected. It did surprise me how difficult it was to get someone to carry out this task, the size of our box is the challenge! Well we need the box size for all the extra extension Kits we are going to be making.

We will get confirmation this week from Games Quest for the delivery dates for the backers.

Printing: Green to go
almost 6 years ago – Mon, May 07, 2018 at 12:42:56 AM

Hello all!

We have news from Ludofact. Printers started to work last week. All files were sent and checked by the factory and we started printing.

We know that this might seem as being behind on schedule, however, we are still meeting our goal for having everything sent out by the time UKGE arrives, which is June 1st. 

We will keep you updated for everything. 

Rulebook sneak peek and production update
about 6 years ago – Wed, Mar 21, 2018 at 03:10:35 AM

Hello Vikings!

It's been a while since our last update and this is what we've been up to. First of all we visited Airecon. People played the 2 player pnp version of War of the 9 Realms and loved it! Feedback was excellent and it seems that the actual version of the game will be well received. 

Back to our schedule now. We are a bit behind in terms of deadlines, BUT we are still meeting the goal we mentioned in the previous update, meaning that still everyone will have their games by UKGE. So, we are happy that we are not missing the overall deadline we set. 

In the meantime we have been working on the final editing of the files. This is the almost final version of the rulebook, meaning that there not really changes to be made, just add credits and some final details. 

You can check the rulebook here

Let us know what you think of the rulebook!

Production update
about 6 years ago – Mon, Feb 05, 2018 at 02:53:19 AM

Hello backers !

Firstly thank you for being fabulous and patient with us. The past few months have been a changing time in Wotan with us shifting some responsibilities around internally in the company. But this doesn't mean that we haven't been working for you and to deliver your game! 

We are in the final stage of the file editing that needs to be sent to the factory. Most of the files are ready, so we believe that we will send everything to Ludofact within this month. There have been some delays with the translations in other languages, however, after discussing with Ludofact at our meeting in Nuremburg, we decided that we are not letting this slow down the production of the copies that need to be sent to all you guys. 

 So if everything goes according to schedule (fingers crossed), this is the plan: 

  •  Send all printing files to Ludofact by end of February 
  • Production finishes by end of March 
  •  All our European backers will get their packages shipped from the UK where the Wotan Games HQ are based. 
  • USA and rest of the world backers will get their packages shipped from Ship Naked. 

 If this schedule is followed and there are no surprises for us, you should all have your games at hand before UKGE. We want to have copies at UKGE but will not do this without our backers getting all their stuff first. 

We will keep you updated for how everything goes, especially as we have shared out the work more evenly.
